they restrict the government. the one i was going to reject -- the one i was going to address was something called the 24-hour rule. if you purchase a firearm, you have to fill out a form, the fbi runs a background check, and assuming you're not a convicted felon, if you are not an illegal alien or involved in domestic abuse, there are a number of prescriptions on purchasing firearms in this country. but assuming you are a lawful gun buyer, you can run this background check or it it takes a couple of minutes, and you walk out in most states with a gun the same day. so the fbi maintains its record, but it only maintains it for 24 hours. the implications of that are several. one is that several thousand times a year the system messes up. about 3000 felons are allowed to purchase firearms. that means the atf, if they figure that out, the 2000 are the ones they do figure out. we don't know how many people are undetected by the system. the civil fact is, they slip through the system and the atf has to go out and recove
